Light fades and colors change incredibly quickly during the day's closing moments, and the curtain fall on the final such scene of 2012 was no exception. Not five minutes prior I had left a friend's house, in hasty pursuit of a decent overlook from within the surrounding housing tract . . . and in that brief interval of my dash downhill the massive clouds overhead were drained of their fleetingly crimson glow.
Even so, the sliver of those glorious hues hugging the far horizon serve as a reminder that one can always have faith that radiating beauty awaits if one simply journeys persistently and far enough.
